thoughts on the edelbrock sp2p manifold

Ive been running this for a while now with the dual 2 bbl and it feels the same as a stock intake with lower low end....So far it does what i wanted it to do...looks different. I was never looking for performance gains. I was just bored with the status quo....performer + 600. Performer is a great intake and 600 vac secondary is a good choice for it.

The 2x2 is progressive with the back carburetor being just used as a vacuum secondary and kicking in at ½ throttle.

Its a dog flooring it right off idle but it runs well after that. I didnt do any further tuning to get that off idle problem worked out because it wasnt important. the real kicker is that its 2 carters...run back to back. with it set up that way and the weird linkage set up..it looks like folk art lol. I could have run a couple of holley 2 jets but...it was too normal. this is just something i play around with. The sp2p was stupid cheap and my adapter bolted right to it..performers were more expensive.

As far as the gas mileage goes....the 2x2 gets horrible mileage....i get consistently 12mpg....ive heard of 20mpg out of a 318 but i have no idea what a stock 318 is supposed to get in a dart with 276 gears
